Memory cards
[Memory Card Error] [Format this card?]
Save needed data on a computer or other device, and then use [Format] on the camera. (→38)
Try with a different card.
[Read Error] / [Write Error] [Please check the card]
Check whether card has been inserted correctly (→35, 36).
Turn off the camera and remove the card. Reinsert the card and turn the camera on again.

[Motion recording was cancelled due to the limitation of the writing speed of the card]
The speed class of a required card varies depending on [Rec Format] and [Rec Quality] of a motion
picture. 4K photo recording requires a card that meets a particular speed class rating. Use a card
that meets the rating. Be sure to use a card of the recommended speed class. For details, refer to
“About motion picture/4K photo recording and speed class ratings” (→37).
If recording stops even when using a card of the recommended speed class (→37), the data writing
speed has dropped. If this happens, we recommend backing up the data on the memory card and
formatting it (→38). Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
[Memory Card Error] [This memory card cannot be used]
Use a compatible card. (→37)
[Cannot record due to incompatible format(NTSC/PAL) data on this card.]
Format the card after saving necessary data on a PC etc. (→38)
Insert a different card.
